Thunder and lightning take the headlines this day, and I will quote one anglers opinion. Vince, you must be joking going out fishing 🎣 with carbon fibre rods.

Wind SW light to fresh and variable followed by heavy showers, yesterday's weather,  amount of rainfall 2.0mm, amount of sunshine 1h.8 mins maximum air  temperature 12.4c.

Just for the record,Yellow warning Storm Herminia will hit Kerry from 11pm Sunday until 6am. Monday. Followed by very cold weather.

 24/1/2025.

The quote of the day comes from the Currane angler.

Everything okay Obviously, there is no fishing today 

The lake was okay to fish the north shore, but I figured that it would be very dirty after the storm 

So I stayed in 

Didn’t see anyone out. Wind fresh WNW followed by good cloud cover and heavy showers at times. Yesterday’s weather, amount of rainfall, 28.1mm, wind gusts up to 104  km. Come 3am this morning Velantia recorded gusts of 137 km/h

23/1/2025

 

23/1/2025 It was clear that the Currane anglers prioritized securing their boats over venturing out, which was a prudent decision given that storm Éowyn is approaching the southwest. As illustrated in the accompanying picture, the outlook for any part of the island of Ireland is not favourable. Stay safe. Just for the record Lough Currane was on the wild side today with WNW gusts up to 72 Km/h. Yesterday’s weather, amount of rainfall 1.1mm, maximum air temperature 10.2°C, amount of sunshine 3hrs 7mins. Storm Éowyn chart for Lough Currane.
